R. Hunter Biden will be in charge of the Holdings’ legal unit and will provide support for the Company among international organizations. On his new appointment, he commented: “Burisma’s track record of innovations and industry leadership in the field of natural gas means that it can be a strong driver of a strong economy in Ukraine. As a new member of the Board, I believe that my assistance in consulting the Company on matters of transparency, corporate governance and responsibility, international expansion and other priorities will contribute to the economy and benefit the people of Ukraine.”

The Chairman of the Board of Directors of Burisma Holdings, Mr. Alan Apter, noted: “The company’s strategy is aimed at the strongest concentration of professional staff and the introduction of best corporate practices, and we’re delighted that Mr. Biden is joining us to help us achieve these goals.”

Having served as a Senior Vice President at MBNA bank, former U.S. President Bill Clinton appointed him an Executive Director of E-Commerce Policy Coordination under Secretary of Commerce William Daley. Mr. Biden served as Honorary Co-Chair of the 2008 Obama-Biden Inaugural Committee.

Company Background:Burisma Holdings is a privately owned oil and gas company with assets in Ukraine and operating in the energy market since 2002. To date, the company holds a portfolio with permits to develop fields in the Dnieper-Donets, the Carpathian and the Azov-Kuban basins. In 2013, the daily gas production grew steadily and at year-end amounted to 11.6 thousand BOE (barrels of oil equivalent – incl. gas, condensate and crude oil), or 1.8 million m3 of natural gas. The company sells these volumes in the domestic market through traders, as well as directly to final consumers.

I have no doubt this will prove to be a wise decision in years to come. Just reading from his bio here on Wikipedia I can immediately gage that he is a true patriot with a strong moral compass. Biden began his career by doing charity work with the Jesuit Volunteer Corps, and shortly after co-founded a hedge fund with his uncle James Biden and Robert Allen Stanford, a controversial but experienced financier. After a successful career in finance, Biden was appointed by none other than President Bill Clinton to oversee the economy in the Department of Commerce. I wish Mr Biden the best of luck in his new endeavor and hope that this appointment will further strengthen America’s relationship with Ukraine.

He looks just like that ball of hair that results from me shaving...... certain areas of my body, in the shower... you know, how it all collects on top of the drain into one big furby looking black ball...

You can't just assassinate Joe Biden's son. The West is such a bitch begging to be slapped. We (use the term loosely) couldn't send an underling, or better man, or loyal dispatch? No one but the VP's son himself. There is no one else in DC who would take this on?

Another politician's spawn who thinks he's God's gift to the USSA. Another brat out to "prove" he can accomplish great things without his father, yet uses all his father's connections to do so. How unique.

I have no doubt this will prove to be a wise decision in years to come. Just reading from his bio here on Wikipedia I can immediately gage that he is a true patriot with a strong moral compass.

It is good to see an accredited point of view being expressed on this matter. Young Mr. Biden's Ivory League schooling and accomplished CV establish him as an expert in multiple fields. As we all know, when dealing with complex issues, the best possible advice to follow is the advice of recognized, accredited experts.

Mr. Biden's appointment virtually assures a prosperous future for all of the people of the Ukraine. Such a wise choice will enhance America's reputation of fairness, transparency, and justice in all matters of foreign policy. This truly is a new American century.

Well done MDB. Cracked me up, sheer brilliance of cynical distrortion in a perverted world of corporates where brilliance defined by the merit of being sons and daughters of the right people is otherwise quite sad if taken seriously.

It is also documented how you pumped and pumped even at much higher prices. Ask the people you convinced to buy in at those higher prices that reality doesn't suck. Time will expose you as the loser that you are. I hear that Reggie is hiring. You two would be a pair made in heaven.

I don't see why people down vote you when you're still that far up. So BTC took a dive. It's all about when you came in and when you cash out. Who around here has a f-ing crystal ball? We'll see. What will they say when the USD takes a dirt nap?

Percentage wise it's up a lot more from it's lows than it is off it's highs. You can't have the price of anything go straight up, so all things considered I'd say btc's price action is speaking favorably for the underlying.

"Percentage wise it's up a lot more from it's lows than it is off it's highs. You can't have the price of anything go straight up, so all things considered I'd say btc's price action is speaking favorably for the underlying"

As for those who CLAIM to have been in since $1.16, $1.10 <insert BS figure here $______>, well aren't you the fools for not bailing at $1300. Just like the degenerate gamblers who piss back their winnings and claim it was "house money" anways. Um, the second that it's in your hands it's YOUR money.

btw, I've asked phoneystar several times to provide a link to his claim that it's a documented fact that he's been here touting since it was $16 (which could be any time between July 2011 and Jan 2013 btw, and which might also be Jan 2015 for all he knows). Each time he FAILS to provide the proof that he claims exists. I'm not saying that there is none, I'm just saying that with his track record of being a DEMONSTRABLE liar, I like my side of the action.

When last I called him/her/it out on his/her/its lies, the only response was, "fonestar says a lot of things."

Enjoy that chart, and maybe buy some black diamonds for the ride down if you're in for the long haul. cc will probably have a place in our futures, but Btc will most likely not.

Everyone knows fonestar has been heres spouting off about Bitcoin since < $50 you idiot. And who the fuck would sell at $1300 BTC when BTC is going into the five, six and seven figures in the next five years? Sounds like those same fucking idiots who sold at "the all time high $266 BTC"! What a bunch of fucking rejects! If you're going to "take profits" you might want to spend, oh... maybe five minutes meditating on what you are "taking profits" IN?

"Everyone knows fonestar has been heres spouting off about Bitcoin since < $50 you idiot."

"Everyone knows" and "documented fact". Sounds like it should be eaasy to prove then, eh? But again you fail to produce.

btw earlier today you said $16. While $16 is certainly less than $50, it is NOT what you imply. Try keeping your story straight you worthless fucking fraud.

"And who the fuck would sell at $1300 BTC when BTC is going into the five, six and seven figures in the next five years?"

Gee, maybe people who buy back in at $430? Surely such a brilliant investor and prognosticator as yourself could time better than that.

After all YOU are the one who last told us herein that you "sold some Btc around $200 to pay some bills"....then a few months later "Bought more at ~ $450".

AGAIN, so the wizard doesn't have a pot to piss in (lest he'd have creditors rather than need to sell his precious). AGAIN, so the wizard bought back his own Btc and paid 1500% interest to do so. Bravo! Well played. Where do we sign up for your newsletter?

Fucking loser. Oh, and Fucking liar. Apologies for again using your own words against you.

"If you're going to "take profits" you might want to spend, oh... maybe five minutes meditating on what you are "taking profits" IN?"

You would be taking profit in, for example, USD, and then spending those to buy back IN at 1/3 the cost.

Enjoy the slide.

P.S. re your straw man argument that "you all said Btc was dead"....who is all? I never said that, but if I characterized it as fucking comatose for 6 months I'd have been spot on.

P.P.S. DO NOT trot out your usual non sequitur bullshit and tell me that gold has been moving sideways for 6 months. I never said it wasn't, and it doesn't have a fucking thing to do with your litany of lies.

~$1200 in Dec. '13. Encouraged my bro to sell enough to cover his initial principal in Nov '13. Suggested he bail out entirely in mid Dec. '13 after the WSJ started promoting it hard and my less that bright coworkers were raving about their new BTC holdings. Good underlying technology, shitty launch environment. Too bad it wasn't launched earlier when the political environment was more benign.

Apparently Fone is still holding the line and praying that the US and Chinese political system and bankers don't roll over and crush it. He should take a hint from the Somali Pirates- If you fight the power's that be overtly, expect to be bent over.

Yeah foney and gas is over $4.00 a gallon and milk is pushing $5.00 a gallon! You bitcoin whore. This charade cannot go on much longer you vomitous mass. Be sure you're filing your capital gains properly cuz big bro got your number for sure:-)

Interesting how fonestar posts his bitcoin tripe in the middle of discussions concerning blatant conflicts of interest of high-placed members and family members of the Obama administration. It would almost seem, if I had a suspicious mind, that fonestar was in cahoots with politicians of a certain left-wing political stripe to change the subject. What alphabet agency is paying for your bitcoins today, fonestar? Maybe the DNC? Or the Kenyan Central Bank?

Foneystar... What an offensive troll you are. On a regular basis. Crawl in a hole and just die already. Or barring that go suck cock with the other bit boys on a bitforum somewhere and let us discuss real money or at least stay on topic. Reading your crowing bs on bitcoin just turns me off from it. Fuck bc.

Um, not to use your own words against you, but a few months ago while posters were jabbing at the MtGox fiasco and the plummet in general, you wrote (more than once), "Who cares about Btc? I'm into Litecoin now."

Is Btc a proxy for your cc delusions, or are you again a lying sack of shit, or did we all miss your press release that you were back into Btc?

Criminals.... Man this is the new normal. How can you expect one group of criminals (politicians) to be arrested by another group of criminals (Police)? You must allow the country to tumble into chaos before anything can be done. Then the army must refuse to fight and establish the necessary claim for an orderly dissolution of the United States Government. Once we lock all animals in their respective cages and execute the rest for treason then we can reevaluate the constitution and form a new government. I could care less because THE VOICE is on NBC tonight!!!! I'm so happy I sharted a little bit.

You don't need weapons to fix something. You use tools. And each of you have tools at your disposal. Each other.

To fix this. You all turn around and just walk away from them. Don't say hello. Don't acknowledge them. Don't serve them. Don't clean their homes. Don't work for them. Don't lift an eyebrow to them. They crave your fear and attention like a three year old throwing a hissy fit in a candy alise. Don't feed that type of attention. We all know that as adults. Just keep on walking and rebuild it together without them.

Everyone here today, is here as a direct result of a couple hundred collapses over the course of human history from all over the world. You are the direct result of generation after generation of people that were as tenacious as a coach roach making it through flood, flame, wind and earth quakes. Economic collapse is so far down the list of tragedy in the human condition it barely warrants the respect a fart in wind storm requires.

Today... Today is no different than any other time when tyranny attempts to crush the collective will of all people across the world through greed, lies and the attempt at unclassifiable and unmanaged hegimonic power.

And to get through this period, like every other period this has happened. You've got your communities and each other together. Just like every other time in the past. Except this time all sorts of processes and easy to leverage technologies liter the landscape. So don't believe the offer MSM horseshit of how flimsy everyone is. You are all built of tougher stuff than you could possibly imagine and they could possibly imagine.

IN JUST ONE YEAR we have made amazing strides; we have fully constituted 10 states and I have received word that 6 more States will be completed by the end of the month that represents almost 1/3 of the nation. We hope for more WE HAVE REACHED A CRITICAL CROSSROAD, WE NEED A CRITICAL MASS OF COUNTIES/STATES CONSTITUTED by the end of the month, is your county constituted? If not it is critical that you do it now! Call your State coordinator and other county organizers for help.

We stand an extremely good chance of accomplishing our goal on JUNE 2, 2014 at the Federal Court in Albany. We need 100’s of people to come to Albany that day. But the People in every American County need to be ready to take control of the courts. If you have not constituted your county yet YOU NEED TO DO IT NOW!

Finally, we have 3000 registered members and only 300 people attend our Monday Night Call, why is that? Are you coming to the Monday night meetings? If not why not and if you are call those who aren’t.

So if we are going to take back America let us reiterate what EVERYONE NEEDS TO DO!!!

Jefferson said if a People expect to be ignorant and free they expect what never was and never will be. Therefore we need to expose People and oath takers to the real law, please join our campaign to teach the people the real law by handing out Jurist Handbooks.

JOIN OUR CAMPAIGN TO EDUCATE PEOPLE IN THE LAW - ORDER JURIST HANDBOOKS NOW: 65 cents each, includes postage - http://www.nationallibertyalliance.org/jurist-handbookWE NEED TO GET THESE HANDBOOKS INTO THE HANDS OF ALL OATH TAKERS IN EVERY STATE AND HAND THEM OUT AT LIBERTY MEETINGS:

1. It's about how determined you are. Taken to the extremes, you will care about your dignity above all else - children, parents, your own survival will mean nothing. This is what distinguishes warriors from serfs: they'd rather die than live the way they don't think they deserve. They'd rather die of hunger than eat inferior food. It's easy to understand once you realize that you, your kids and parents are all going to die anyway, but some scenarios will leave you ashamed of yourself and some won't.

2. Not taken to the extremes, it means staying away from banks and credit. I have no house, because I cannot buy it: it belongs to the bank, then to the municipality. I have no new car, and the one I have, I bought with cash. Yes, it belongs to the insurance company and the government, but I won't feel much pain if it's gone. I don't have a phone plan - prepaid, cash-only, cheap Chinese device. If you work in the real world, be paid in cash. If you work online, you must know how to use VPN and Google.

It's called secession. In Rome, they had to walk away with their actual feet in order to get heard. Today, you only need to walk away from any trackable money to make one of a thousand cuts that will kill the beast.

The people have the power to arrest these criminals

How exactly are you going to arrest all lawmakers, judges, jailers, police, prosecutors, the government? What are you going to do with them, once they've been arrested, if the very mechanism of "justice" is theirs?

- You are under arrest as an enemy of the state.- But I have a constitutional right for...- Yes, you do.- Therefore, I can...- No, you can't.

Whatcha gonna do?

People have no power except the power to stop investing their blood, sweat, and tears into the pyramid. Yes, it may be lethal. But you will die anyway.

He wears that flag pin as a disguise or decoy or something to fool the masses into thinking that he's American. He would never be allowed into such a critical position without sworn and proven loyalty to the NWO.

You see anything is possible in this great land of ours, where even someone who never contributed anything to society, can have no career whatsoever, and become a millionare...IF you spawn from the right nutsack...

The rest of you shleps get $400 a week, and be greatful for that pocket change, as Ukraine people dont get that and get shot in the head for their misery.

Wait a minute, how does Mrs. Biden feel about moving to Ukraine? or is he gay to?

In other news: A consortium of big auto makers (all of them) will begin developing, building and selling a vehicle that burns natural gas. The pilot facility will be built in Scranton PA, the worst place on earth:
